I only have in my test classpath jbossall-client.jar coming from the server I used. Here is my server log regarding my EJB deployment: 2013-07-10 09:19:01,940 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main) Created KernelDeployment for: MY_JAR.jar 2013-07-10 09:19:01,941 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main) installing bean: jboss.j2ee:ear=MY_EAR.ear,jar=MY_JAR.jar,name=CallAtProcessingBean,service=EJB3 2013-07-10 09:19:01,941 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)   with dependencies: 2013-07-10 09:19:01,941 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)   and demands: 2013-07-10 09:19:01,941 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           jboss.ejb:service=EJBTimerService 2013-07-10 09:19:01,942 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)   and supplies: 2013-07-10 09:19:01,942 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           jndi:MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/local-com.mycomp.myorg.sb.OFSProcessingBeanLocal 2013-07-10 09:19:01,942 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           Class:com.mycomp.myorg.sb.OFSProcessingBeanRemote 2013-07-10 09:19:01,942 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           jndi:MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/local 2013-07-10 09:19:01,942 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           Class:com.mycomp.myorg.sb.OFSProcessingBeanLocal 2013-07-10 09:19:01,943 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           jndi:MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/remote 2013-07-10 09:19:01,943 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main)           jndi:MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/remote-com.mycomp.myorg.sb.OFSProcessingBeanRemote 2013-07-10 09:19:01,943 INFO  [org.jboss.ejb3.deployers.JBossASKernel] (main) Added bean(jboss.j2ee:ear=MY_EAR.ear,jar=MY_JAR.jar,name=CallAtProcessingBean,service=EJB3) to KernelDeployment of: MY_JAR.jar I don't know whether the mapping is correct or not, I supposed it is as it works when invoked from the server, but I could see from that trace that the sequence between local JNDI name and class name is "weird". As I said as this test is working like a charm in 4.2, thus given the stacktrace: Caused by: javax.naming.NameNotFoundException: ProxyFactory not bound         at org.jnp.server.NamingServer.getBinding(NamingServer.java:771) I tried to replace the jnpclient.jar with former version with no luck. Then given the stacktrace Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Exception while trying to locate proxy factory in JNDI, at key ProxyFactory/....         at org.jboss.ejb3.proxy.impl.objectfactory.ProxyObjectFactory.getProxyFactoryFromJNDI(ProxyObjectFactory.java:         at org.jboss.ejb3.proxy.impl.objectfactory.ProxyObjectFactory.getObjectInstance(ProxyObjectFactory.java:157) I get rid of *jboss-ejb3-proxy-impl-client.jar* in my client libraries. And my test is going a bit further, it's not failing anymore but second assert fails.         Object object = initialContext.lookup("MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/remote");         assertNotNull(object);         assertTrue(object instanceof OFSProcessingBeanRemote); Here is a debug view of "object", thus it seems mapping is correct. Reference Class Name: Proxy for: com.mycomp.myorg.sb.OFSProcessingBeanRemote Type: ProxyFactoryKey Content: ProxyFactory/MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/MY_EAR/CallAtProcessingBean/remote Type: EJB Container Name Content: jboss.j2ee:ear=MY_EAR.ear,jar=MY_JAR.jar,name=CallAtProcessingBean,service=EJB3 Type: Proxy Factory is Local Content: false Type: Remote Business Interface Content: com.mycomp.myorg.sb.OFSProcessingBeanRemote Type: Remoting Host URL Content: socket://127.0.0.1:3873/ If I try to do the cast to my type I got, which I guess is expected without the proxy jar. java.lang.ClassCastException: javax.naming.Reference cannot be cast to com.mycomp.myorg.sb.CallAtProcessingBeanRemote Any thought about that ?
